Bouquet Garni, 6 Sachets

A Bouquet Garni (French for "garnished bouquet") is a bundle of herbs traditionally used to flavour soups, stews, broths, and sauces. It originated in French cuisine and is a classic way to infuse dishes with aromatic herbs without leaving loose bits in the final dish. The bouquet is removed before serving, ensuring a smooth and herb-infused dish.
